    Our access to God is not by ceremonial ritual but the sacrifice of Christ.

    We have differing standards on what we consider “clean” and “unclean.” A lot depends on how meticulous we are.

    From the Parable of Jesus, lessons we can learn from the fig tree.

    Lessons from the Fig Tree Luke 13:6-9 * As a primary in Sunday school, my teachers taught me to define a parable in this way: “It is a earthly story told by Jesus which has a heavenly meaning.” I guess the only way I would amend this is to say that it has a “divine” (instead of heavenly) meaning. ...read more
